Just one kiss...

Here are some photos of a little game that Bear Cub likes to play. Any time we are lying down, he says something like, "Mama or Daddy go night-night...wake up with tiss (kiss)." So we obediently close our eyes and wait for him to come up and give us the magical kiss that will wake us up. It is so cute! I love to peep one eye open to see his sweet little face coming my way, all serious and puckered-up, ready to wake his Mama up. :)

I feel like it's been hard for me to keep the blog updated lately, since BC seems to be saying GOOD-BYE! to an afternoon nap. Yikes! He will fall asleep in his car seat, but if it's been longer than 10 min. or so asleep, it's impossible for me to make the quick transfer from car to bed. So, I've spent several afternoons parked in a shady spot, reading a book, and letting the man snooze in his car seat. My leisurely blogging hour in the afternoon has been non-existent! As with everything else, things will change and eventually we'll be back to a good, solid nap here at home. At least that's what I hope for...

We've had a really busy week. We've been to the park a couple of times and to 2 different elementary schools, making the visiting rounds with my teacher friends. Bear Cub seems to enjoy our trips to school - making friends with all the teachers and trying to keep up with the 'big kids.' In fact, today, my friend's class was in a line on their way to lunch when I told BC that we would just go wait back in the classroom for my friend. He looked up at me and said, "Bear Cub (ok, he used his real name, not the nickname!) do dat!" and he quickly stepped into line with the second graders. He smiled at me, so proud and happy, and of course, my heart melted, knowing that just in a couple of years, he will indeed be "doing dat" on a daily basis. Oh my.

Tomorrow it's story time at the library, which last week he did GREAT with! One of my friends there even commented on how "engaged" he seemed to be. He sat in a chair all by himself and didn't wiggle or run the entire time. My little squirm bug surely is growing up, right before our eyes! :)

Have a wonderful day and weekend ahead! :)
